The Blue Ridge Leo Club is raising money for Rett Syndrome, the most severe form of autism. Rett Syndrome is a neurological disorder that predominantly affects girls. It impairs the girls’ ability to speak, walk, and use their hands.
Rett Syndrome affects one of our Blue Ridge families: The Stepniak Family. Lauren has Rett Syndrome and is a brilliant, beautiful student in Mrs. Decker’s fourth grade class. Lauren’s mother, Lisa Stepniak, is the 7th grade Reading teacher at Blue Ridge.
The Blue Ridge Leo Club is raising money to help with Rett Syndrome research. Although Rett Syndrome is the most severe form of autism, it is also the most curable. Rett research can also have a direct impact on Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological disorders.
From May 23- June 3 we will be creating a “Garden of Hope” with purchased flowers and flowers decorated by students and staff at BR. Flowers can be purchased for $1.
Leo Club members will be selling the flowers during the high school and middle school lunches. Flowers in the Elementary can be purchased through Kristy Bleck.
